Chapter 1073: Chapter 1073: The Anxiety in Xiang Yu’s Heart

Dealing with those ten people, Xiang Yu and his crew took just a few minutes, and soon everyone was lying on the ground.

At this moment, four men, including Hong Laoliu, were watching them from upstairs. Seeing Xiang Yu and the others’ fighting skills, Hong Laoliu gritted his teeth, pondering his next move.

If he gathered more men, it would certainly cause social panic. The city No. 5 was like a powder keg—usually inconspicuous, but a single spark could trigger a massive explosion.

Hong Laoliu was just a small team leader, and if he became the spark, he truly felt a bit apprehensive.

"Sixth Brother, what do we do? Our guys have been knocked down." One man, clenching his fist, said.

"How about the three of us go down there?" another man suggested.

These three men were considered ’experts’ alongside Hong Laoliu, convinced their fighting skills were decent enough.

Even though Xiang Yu and his crew easily defeated the people downstairs, they believed they could handle it if they tried.

Hong Laoliu shook his head and said, "You’re not their match."

"What?" One of them was disgruntled and said, "Sixth Brother, we’ve followed you for so long, when have we ever failed?"

In the past, Hong Laoliu thought his men were quite skilled, but today he realized their skill was just drizzle.

"Cut the crap," Hong Laoliu shouted angrily.

The three saw his rage and kept silent.

After knocking down those guys, Xiang Yu didn’t hurt them further but shouted, "When you go back, tell your boss that whatever issues you have can be discussed openly. There’s no need for such despicable tactics. This is the first and last time. If it happens again, I’ll break your legs."

After finishing, Xiang Yu called for a few guys and got into the car.

Hong Laoliu upstairs was so angry that he smashed his cup. In the past, he would lead his men personally to retaliate.

But now, it’s not possible. Such small-scale fights could happen, but if he called in more men, it would definitely alert the relevant departments.

"Since you’ve done this, don’t blame us for being rude." Hong Laoliu, with cold eyes blazing, uttered grimly.

Xiang Yu and his crew returned to their residence, and Tie Zhuzi was very excited there. The pent-up frustration finally got released.

"It’s so satisfying, but there were too few of them. Most were beaten down by Brother Yu himself, I hardly did anything." Tie Zhuzi complained.

Xiao Xuan felt speechless, as he truly didn’t do much. He was by Sun Bo’s side protecting him, not completely engaging.

Sun Bo worriedly looked at Xiang Yu and said, "Brother Yu, was this the right thing to do?"

Tie Zhuzi was immediately anxious and stared, saying, "What’s wrong with that? They tried to fight us but got beaten because they were no match. If Brother Yu and I didn’t intervene, things might have gotten worse."

Xiang Yu nodded in agreement. He knew there were certainly other people around, but they hadn’t stepped forward. If only Xiao Xuan was there, the others might have employed tricks.

"Xiao Xuan, be careful in the next couple of days; they definitely won’t let this slide." Xiang Yu frowned and said.

The Hongmen used to be a major gang in the country, and unless forced, Xiang Yu didn’t want to have any dealings with them.

But if they pushed too far, Xiang Yu would not hold back.

Xiao Xuan nodded without saying much. From Xiang Yu’s expression, it was evident this matter wasn’t simple.

Xiang Yu hadn’t mentioned Hongmen to them, hence they were unaware.

After chatting for a while, they each went to their rooms to rest.

Xiang Yu had just laid down on the bed to sleep when the phone rang. It was Wang Qian.

"Xiang Yu, where did you run off to?" Wang Qian asked accusingly.

"I’m outside." Xiang Yu replied, somewhat innocently.

"Did you go to flirt with women?" Wang Qian asked angrily.

Xiang Yu felt speechless as his affairs had nothing to do with Wang Qian, yet her anger was palpable.

Realizing her tone was off, Wang Qian quickly said, "I need to talk to you, come back now."

"Just tell me over the phone. I’m busy," Xiang Yu said.

"No way, it’s urgent. Come back now." Wang Qian demanded.

Xiang Yu was in city No. 5 and couldn’t return, so he said, "Even if it’s super urgent, I can’t come back."

Wang Qian, furious, shouted, "Where are you now?"

Xiang Yu reluctantly shared his location. What puzzled him was that after revealing his whereabouts, Wang Qian simply said "oh" and hung up, as if she wasn’t that anxious anymore.

Xiang Yu didn’t think much about it and planned to sleep when the room door suddenly opened.

He sat up alertly, as normally, no one dared to open his door while he was sleeping.

The room was somewhat dark, and though he couldn’t see the person’s face, when the person entered, Xiang Yu instantly discerned because the opening brought a strong smell of alcohol.

"You got the wrong room," Xiang Yu said helplessly, then walked over, grabbed Yuan Huai’s collar, and threw him out before closing the door.

Xiang Yu didn’t ask much about Yuan Huai’s condition because he had his reasons for ending up like this.

After Xiang Yu threw him out, Yuan Huai muddled his way into Tie Zhuzi’s room and eventually slept, hugging Tie Zhuzi.

Early in the morning, just as Xiang Yu went out for exercise, a scream like a pig being slaughtered came from Tie Zhuzi’s room.

When Xiang Yu returned from exercising, the food was ready. However, Tie Zhuzi’s face was livid, and Yuan Huai was casually tossed aside.

Yuan Huai was still in his drunken stupor.

When eating, Yuan Huai intended to join, but Tie Zhuzi threw him aside. Yuan Huai didn’t mind and ate a bit after they were done.

"Brother Yu, we’re leaving." Xiao Xuan said, looking at Xiang Yu.

Xiang Yu nodded, feeling an inexplicable unease, though he didn’t know why.

Just as Xiao Xuan and Sun Bo were about to head out, Xiang Yu suddenly turned and said, "Xiao Xuan, you two be careful."

Xiao Xuan smiled and said, "Don’t worry, Brother Yu, it’s fine."

Sun Bo paused, wanting to speak, but eventually said nothing and left with Xiao Xuan.

After they departed, Xiang Yu felt a sense of emptiness inside.

"Brother Yu, what’s wrong?" Tie Zhuzi asked, seeing Xiang Yu’s demeanor.

Xiang Yu sat on the sofa, then stood and paced a few times before saying, "Zhuzi, let’s go find Sun Bo and the others."

Tie Zhuzi didn’t know what Xiang Yu was thinking but didn’t ask and followed his lead out. Today, he felt Xiang Yu was acting odd.

Xiang Yu sat in the back of the car, eyes closed, motionless...
